Which dark sea are you going for?

Now that we have a definite release date to the Dark Seas, which dark sea are you going into? Now hear me out; considering that the entire map is surrounded by the Dark Sea, what direction would be the best to head out from?

(So you don’t end up like this:)

Do you head South from Mount Oryths or North from Pelion Rift? Or maybe even East from Fort Talos? Don’t even mention the folks that’ll start from Akursius Keep to the West.

Just don’t go east if you don’t want to deal with anyone

Personally I want to start at Frostmill then head West.
I think that’s the most likely thing for my OC to do.

i wanna go north just cause i like north, it’s usually colder up north

north because north is cold and i like cold

But you’ll have to go around an entire ridge to get there~

I think it really depends on what you see in your server, because I’m predicting most people are gonna get reflexes first hand, meaning the North will be crowded a bit

Though beyond that, If you see a lot of people going North, then go South, if you see a lot of people going East, go West. Thats my way of thinking about it

For shipwrights, you def don’t turn in at Ravenna. Though because of this, I think Thorin and other uncommon shipwrights is gonna be crowded as fuck as well. Same concept as entering the Dark Sea, try to see which Shipwright is the most crowded and look at your bounty boards to see where the threatening people are

you mean CLIMB a ridge

because who needs to go around it?

I want to see how your boat climbs a ridge :eyes:

You’re gonna swim to the ridge to climb it?

I forgot to mention, Imma get a low level alt on my Brig and look for the Death Curse according to Morden’s Journal, which is East of the Pelion Rift

I’m going to the nimbus sea early, you guys have fun trying to find the former location of the death curse

I will try to find mimhere island,
gonna explore every dark sea direction starting with east

im gonna head out through thorins refuge and turn in my chests there, its like nobody ever goes there after gettign a bronze hammer

why not all 4? why cant i go in all 4 directions at once?

its just not possible

i just head out from spawning in ravenna and the closest is the east so

though to turn in chests thorins is a better idea (i have figured out the maximum overdrive brig build)

Imo, here’s the “chance of player encounter” based on where you enter the dark seas.
Red - everything near Ravenna
Orange - somewhat easy to get from ravenna but still far
Green - you will go there if you SPECIFICLY dont want to be attacked by any player
